The food is amazing. The AMBIENCE is stellar! And the staff is super attentive. There was a bit of a delay with a food but it was a corrected immediately. I cannot wait to get back to Miami because this place is SUCH a vibe! Walk don't run! read more

Las' Lap - Caribbean Near Me - Miami Beach, Florida

After visiting Tatiana, I was excited to try Las Lap. It's another restaurant connected to Kwame Onwuachi, though not the same kind of concept. That made the disappointment hit differently. I left Las Lap a disappointed woman. Kwame calls Tatiana his "love letter to New York," and it shows. There's intention in every bite. Las Lap felt like a rejection letter to Miami and the Caribbean. The menu set the tone. Caviar felt out of place for a restaurant claiming Caribbean roots. "Las Lap," or "last lap," in Trinidad Carnival is the final, euphoric stretch of celebration. It's high-energy, defiant, and deeply cultural. None of that spirit showed up in the food. The food, overall, misses the fundamentals. The doubles were the first sign. Traditionally, doubles come with two bara. Bara is a soft, slightly chewy fried flatbread made from seasoned dough, typically used as the base for Trinidadian doubles. Here, each "double" had one. The bara itself tasted different from what you'd expect, though the tamarind sauce did most of the work. While it wasn't great, I enjoyed the doubles. I ordered the curried shrimp cook-up. It didn't look or taste like curry. I've had Trinidadian, Jamaican, Indian, and Thai curries, and this didn't register as any of them. The menu mentioned geerah roasted vegetables, but the geerah never showed up in the vegetables. The dish came with rice and peas, which I didn't expect, and it was the worst I've had. The rice was hard, like bun bun stuck to the bottom of a pot. That texture has its place, but not like this. It also lacked the seasoning that defines rice and peas. The roti didn't help. It should be rich without being greasy. This was oily, flat, and bland. More like a basic flatbread than roti. And without any real curry gravy in the shrimp dish, there was nothing for it to absorb. To make matters worse, they sprinkled salt atop the roti as if it was a pretzel. This was a roadie, not a roti. I also had a rum punch. For a drink made with three rums (including Wray & Nephew), it should have had some bite. It didn't. It lacked punch entirely. This might land better for someone who isn't familiar with Caribbean flavors and is coming more for the vibe than the food. But if you know what these dishes are supposed to taste like, this misses big time. Service and ambiance, however, tell a different story. Jose was excellent. He was attentive, walked through each dish in detail, and actively asked for honest feedback about the meal. The service is the only thing that elevates the rating to 3 stars. The space itself is beautiful, with outdoor seating overlooking the water. It feels like a small escape from the usual Miami Beach traffic and chaos. Like many South Beach restaurants, Las Lap adds a 20% service fee. Under different circumstances, I would have tipped more based on the service alone, but the gratuity was already built in. I went at 5:30pm on a Thursday. The restaurant was completely empty. When I left 45 minutes later, it was still empty. Las Lap claims to be "rooted in the spirit of the Caribbean." The food tells a different story. It feels like it was made by someone who spent a week vacationing in Trinidad, enjoyed the food, and came back to the US, claiming to be an expert. I enjoy fusion food when done well. But this restaurant doesn't even capture the essence of Caribbean food. Skip it read more

My honest review, this is a skippable restaurant in my opinion. I wanted to like it and was willing to pay what it cost if the flavor was worth it but we picked at a few items but nothing was standout. Best dish was probably the rasta pasta. The "wagyu tasso" didn't not even taste like tassot. Good effort, nice location. The food just doesn't live up to the hype but try it yourself. Lots of people seem to like it. It's not for me. read more

Found this place on social media and was so excited to dine here during my stay in DC. I did go onto Resy and have to be placed on the waitlist for a Saturday evening but thankfully was able to get something for 8:30pm. It was packed however, our server was attentive and got our order in very quickly, but the service from that point on. We started with the mantoo beef dumplings and the sambosas. The dumplings were filled with ground beef topped with a tomato sauce and garlic yogurt sauce. This was a must order, so much that we had 2 orders of the dumplings. The dumplings were packed with flavor and a great starter. The sambosas were really good, my favorite being the spinach. It came with a green chutney and garlic sauce/aioli. For my entree, I had the lamb shank which I ordered medium. They were grilled to perfection and I felt like a caveman at one point because I was going in on the bone in front of my friend. The tomato sauce was nice dipping/spreadable moment but the lamb was seasoned and great on its own. We also ordered a bottle of Gamay wine for the night. The tables were pretty small and close to the others, which set a more intimate vibe. In the downstairs or basement, they have a speakeasy that was more bright than the ambience in the dining area. Next time, I will have to grab a drink from there. read more

What a beautiful restaurant! I was happy to finally experience one of Chef Kwame's restaurants. My friend and I arrived just in time for our reservation and we were amongst the first to arrive on a Friday night. The staff was friendly and attentive and gave spot on recommendations for our dinner. To start we ordered cocktails, I had spicy marg of a different name and we ordered the snapper and green Caesar. Everything was amazing although our salad came without the anchovies because they were out. For our entree we shared the wagyu Tasso. It was a large serving with multiple elements that came together beautifully. All of my tastebuds were satisfied! I would definitely recommend this restaurant for date night or any other reason. read more

I wanted to love this place so bad. It was decent but I was expecting spectacular. Please be advised that there is no parking lot, so you have to park in a parking garage across the street and enter from the main road. Thankfully it's super cheap, especially for Miami. About $6 for 2 hours. The decor and vibe is definitely a whole mood. I went on a Saturday night around 9pm and the DJ/playlist was EVERYTHING. Think Drake Summer '16 and 2000s bangers. The food was decent, kinda mid. I've been to Tatiana (the sister restaurant in NYC) and that set my expectations. At Tatiana, they took basic food items like a cosmic brownie and made it with an exceptional, unexpected twist. At Las Lap they take exceptional meals like lomo saltado and make it basic. Quite a disappointing reverse. I ordered the custom coconut water, espress yo self (espresso martini) and the pollo saltado. The coconut water came in a thoughtful water coconut with the Las Lap logo carved in it - very instagrammable and refreshing. There was a ton of coconut Water in there. It felt like I had a million sips. The espresso martini was good. They paid homage to Chef Kwame's roots and served it in a classic Greek-looking coffee cup that's notoriously served around NYC but a classy, ceramic version. I had HIGH hopes for the pollo saltado. I was expecting it to be just like the traditional Peruvian dish lomo saltado, especially based on the description. It was a bougie and overpriced chicken and rice plate. Instead of French fries they served "crispy potatoes" on the plate that were a few mini potato strings sprinkled around. Instead of stir fry they put a few pickled red onions on the plate. That was literally the most delicious thing on the plate. The chicken was a tiny bit dry, so the little gravy present on the plate was a blessing. Honestly, this somehow tasted way better a day later when I heated up my leftovers at home in the microwave and squirted the lime that came with it all over. It was a decent meal, but the customer service from the staff and ambience definitely takes the cake. It might be best to come here for drink and take some dope pictures before you head out to your real dinner spot or for a night cap after your real dinner spot. read more

Came here for dinner. Reservations were easy to make online. Hostess at the front was super sweet and friendly. I got a table outside in the patio which was nice and breezy. I was feeling like having a smaller dinner so I got the green caesar salad and the wagyu carpaccio. Of the two, the green caesar was my favorite. It had a nice mix of avocado and fried anchovies. The carpaccio was not bad but I could have done without the sour cream. Portions are a little pricy given the portions but not unacceptable for Miami Beach. I agree with the other reviews---service was really slow. In my opinion, it's probably because there's a 20% service charge added to all checks, so there really wasn't any incentive for great / efficient service. Thankfully, one of the managers stepped in to take my order etc to speed things up a bit. No regrets coming here, but next time I'd budget more time and try some of their other heavier dishes like their oxtail. read more

Last night was my first time at Las Lap in Miami, and from the moment Elaine greeted me at the host stand, I knew I was in for something special. I was seated in the bar area near the entrance which turned out to be the best decision of the night. It gave me a front-row seat to the restaurant's operations. Las Lap is a high-energy, well-oiled machine that still managed to feel intimate and incredibly warm. The staff, especially Elijah and Danielle, moved with a grace that made the busy room feel effortless. The first "wow" moment was ordering a coconut water and having a literal fresh coconut hit the table. Talk about setting a standard for freshness right out of the gate! The cocktail program is equally impressive. I moved on to a mezcal cocktail that was a masterclass in balance; the smokiness of the spirit was brightened by watermelon and lime, while a kick of ginger tied it all together. As I sipped, the service team stayed consistently thoughtful with their recommendations, ensuring every part of the meal felt curated. It's rare to find a spot where the staff is as vibrant as the decor, but the team here genuinely seems to care about the guest experience. For the main event, I started with oysters before diving into the Wagyu Tassot. As a Haitian, I have a deep, personal connection to these flavors, and I was genuinely moved by the presentation that was refined but deeply authentic. I followed Marcella's expert advice, adding the roti, and she was spot on; it was the perfect vessel for the rich, seasoned beef. The textures were flawless, capturing that familiar "home-cooked" soul while elevating it to a fine-dining level that is hard to find elsewhere in the city. I ended the night with a rum cake that I'm still thinking about today. It had this unique, velvety richness with a texture on the inside that reminded me of a classic crumb cake. Paired with the tartness of gooseberries and a cloud of whipped cream, it was a total knockout. Honestly? A 10/10 experience. read more

Las' Lap Miami is undeniably gorgeous. The ambiance, music, and overall setting felt like the perfect backdrop for a New Year's Eve experience, and I want to be very clear: the staff and the food were not the problem here. That said... the $195 NYE experience was rough around the edges. Our reservation was for 10:00pm, but we weren't seated until about 10:30pm. The first course--an amuse bouche (a deviled egg)--arrived at 11:20pm. From there, the rest of the courses rolled out well past midnight, which made the pacing feel more like a waiting game than a celebration. To their credit, the team was generous with champagne all night (much appreciated), but the bar staff already looked stretched thin, so ordering cocktails felt like adding to the chaos. It seemed like the restaurant may have bitten off more than it could chew for such a big night. Now for the bright spots, because there were some excellent ones: The Lobster Escovitch (not even on the regular menu) was outstanding. The Rasta Pasta Bucatini? Absolutely phenomenal! The Golden Rum Cake was a perfect finish and worth remembering. We were told there would be a reduced cost due to a missed course and the long wait times, but the final bill still came out to $480, which stung a bit given the experience. I'm honestly at a crossroads. Part of me thinks this was a case of NYE over-ambition and that Las' Lap deserves another chance on a normal night. The potential is absolutely there. As a New Yorker visiting Miami, I want to love this place and I just might try again when the pressure of a major holiday isn't in the mix. A beautiful space, great food, kind staff... just a night that needed better organization. read more

Las'Lap is something special, and jumps to one of my top favorites in Miami. Street and garage parking nearby. Safe neighborhood. This restaurant is tucked inside a hotel with an intimate, vibey entrance and flows into the bar/restaurant. From afar you can tell it's got island vibes with its tiki like flair. The host and surrounding staff were all very friendly, well trained, and worked well together. Of particular note, our bartender/ server Claudia took amazing care of us tonight. Patiently explained the menu items, shared some favorite highlights, and was overall very sweet the entire night. The food here is rockstar status. The doubles, tuna and crispy roti tartare were great starters. The chicken stew a filling and flavorful shareable plate, with great accompanying rice. No regrets with anything ordered here. I'd easily order them all again. Whatever you do, you must make it to desert. I think only seasonal (this might be a crime.. bc it's so good), the rum cake is arguably one of the best I've had. It's made in house too, and I hope makes the permanent menu. Outstanding. Plating was nice, as well as the ambiance... nice tunes (not too loud), dimly lit. It's a smaller area but they make great use of the space they have. They have an outside seating, but that was closed tonight. I also appreciate the seats at the bar were very comfortable.. that's not my usual experience with bar seats... these were specious, comfy padding and had back and arm rests. Bathrooms are mixed use, clean and just outside the bar area. In short, Las'Lap was one of my top must tries... and it exceeded my expectations. I'd recommend and return. Hope you enjoy! read more

Las Lap is a whole experience. The decor is Afrocentric maximalism at its finest--jazzy, bold, and indulgent, with a vibe that feels intentionally luxurious without trying too hard. Jeffery was my waiter and absolutely elevated the evening. He was knowledgeable, confident, and walked me through the menu with ease, making thoughtful recommendations along the way. I started with the Saba Tea Mocktail--tart yet sweet with just enough pucker to wake up your palate. The oysters were beautifully fresh and came with sauces that brought real personality. The mignonette stood out in particular: sweet with a subtle kick that lingered just right. The beef carpaccio was sliced paper-thin and paired with crispy mushrooms that added texture and depth--simple, elegant, and perfectly executed. Chef Kwame's menu may be tiny, but it is truly mighty. Every dish celebrates the African diaspora with intention and pride, proving you don't need a long menu when every item hits. The staff was attentive throughout the night, making sure every element--from timing to presentation--felt deliberate and well thought out. Las Lap Las Lap isn't just dinner; it's storytelling on a plate. read more

We had such a lovely time at las lap! I had heard sooo many good things, and I just had to try it out. You first walk in and you are greeted with a beautiful and spacious bar. We continued into the back patio area, it was lit up so pretty. Our server was very nice and helped us with all questions we had regarding the menu. The playlist was the best! All r&b, rap, and hip hop classics. We started with some drinks, including a mango mocktail which was delicious and refreshing. Then we had the absolute star of the show.. the oxtail cuban. The warm buttery roll, the juicy mojo oxtail bacon, and the truffle on top were all so good with the dipping sauce. I wish i could take it for lunch every day. Next up were the sticky wings. I like saucy, and these were covered! Again a great dipping sauce . Then came the lamb ribs with a side of brioche. Very good, but this is probably the dish i could stiff, it was a littleee overcooked. We had to close it out with some pistachio gelato. So smooth and tasty. I would recommend them every time for a fun and delicious dinner in miami. read more

As Chef Kwame has restaurants in three of my favorite places in America, I had Las Lap on my radar and chose to go there with my family for my birthday. Hello day ones of Capricorn Season (12/22)! I made it to a spot I wanted to go to for months the night before, but was a bit disappointed, so I had very high expectations for Las' Lap. Uber had us looking for a different hotel name, Las' Lap actually sits in the Daydrift. There is no exterior signage for the restaurant. The property has a spacious lobby for an art deco hotel and then you enter the restaurant. The vibe gets right immediately. I had a long weekend and knew I wanted an ice cold Belvedere dirty martini, but decided to try one of the specialty cocktails. I think it had "spice" or "heat" in the name (0/10). It had neither. The attempt at a dirty (extra dirty) martini failed as well (4/10). It's honestly the first time I've ordered a dirty and it was too dirty. I sucked it up anyway. We ordered more food than I photographed and I was quite satisfied. The plates are meant to be shared and we were a party of four. We ordered caviar service (10/10), Escovitch Crab Claws (10/10), South Beach Snapper (7/10), Big Eye Tuna (5/10), an Oxtail Cuban (10/10 without the sauce), a Caesar (7/10), Waygu Tasso (8/10), Lamb Ribs (10/10) Ice Box Cake (8/10 the topping and ice cream was divine) and mango sorbet (8/10). I saw the caviar service table on Instagram and was disappointed the table was "out of order". I don't know if it's the way the orders are placed in the system or the ways the chefs process, but several items came out at once, and we were at a small round table, so the service seemed a bit clunky. The restaurant has a great back patio and the main dining area is cool and sexy. It was a great night and we were right between main dining and the patio. Our server was okay. I will go back and I can't wait to try his other restaurants. read more

Last Lap has officially arrived in Miami, and wow everything was incredible! So flavorful with that perfect Caribbean twist. I started with the Birds Eye View cocktail. It came in a parrot shaped cup and was almost too cute to drink. For the table, we ordered the Oxtail Cuban sandwiches packed with mojo oxtail, black truffle, and wagyu beef bacon ,an absolute flavor bomb. The sticky wings were my favorite dish of the night. They weee pimento smoked with hot honey and jerk BBQ. They sounded spicy but hit the perfect balance with just the right amount of heat and sweetness. The lamb ribs were also amazing, they fell right off the bone and were glazed in jerk BBQ, paired with house pickles and brioche bread. To finish, we shared the pistachio gelato topped with a Jamaican cereal crunch on top and a drizzle of vanilla cream. Probably one of the best gelatos I've ever had. After dinner, we checked out the upstairs rooftop bar . It was super cute, with a little photo booth, comfy lounge couches, a well stocked bar, and a fun vibe with great music. read more

Las Lap was nothing short of fantastic! I went to dinner here with my two girlfriends as a lot of our friends had recommended it. As soon as you walk into Las Lap, the decor is full of vibrant foliage. There was a DJ to the left when we entered as well. We weren't able to sit until our full party was present. We sat outside on the patio. It was so nicely decorated with lights on the trees and the music was really great. We weren't able to stop dancing! There were many items to share on the menu, which is exactly what we did! To drink, I got the mango mocktail, which was essentially a carbonated beverage with a mango undertone. It was very refreshing! We ordered the oxtail Cuban sandwich, which is an absolute must! The meat was so well cooked and melted in my mouth! The truffle and chimichurri sauce were the perfect touch. The sandwich was cut into 4 pieces and was so easy to share. We also ordered the sticky wings, which were quite spicy but absolutely delicious! The sauce and the way the chicken was cooked was just fabulous. We also got lamb ribs, which, as explained to us by our waiter, were a little bit fattier than lamb chops. Nonetheless, the lamb ribs were awesome. For dessert, we got the pistachio gelato which was topped with Jamaican cereal. It was super creamy and delicious. Such a great dining experience! read more

The restaurant is located right across the street from I believe a museum. It has very cute decor and very friendly staff. They enthusiastically greeted and complimented me upon arrival and quickly got me seated. I sat on the terrace and overlooked the river. It was very soothing and comfortable. There were plenty of cooling fans I was suggested a fish disk, I forgot which fish it was but tried it because my waiter was insistent that it was a crowd favorite and he was not lying. There were various flavors mingling and the fish had a nice crispy crush and was tender and flaky inside. I can't really describe the flavor with a word besides purposeful. I started with a tartare that was so tender and delicious. I could have taken it home with me. I was very happy and pleased with my experience. read more

My experience was amazing. I would absolutely go back again and again. From the service to the food and to the atmosphere, chefs' kiss especially for a place like Miami that prioritizes vibes over top tier food. We ordered the oxtail sliders, rasta pasta, wings, wagyu griot and the doubles. The wagyu griot was out of this world. It was delicious when served with the coconut rice and all the different dipping sauces. Soooooo yummy. The wings were also delicious and my sisters who aren't wing lovers, thoroughly enjoyed them. The rasta pasta has a different flavor profile than I am used to. I've had Jamaican rasta pasta in NY and this tastes different. I was not impressed with the doubles. I enjoyed the oxtail sliders but there was truffle on them that none of us could taste. The flavor of the truffle was really mild. The service was also top tier and our waitress was friendly and very knowledgeable. The ambiance is grown and sexy. Perfect for a date night or a girls' night. They have a DJ on site who played some really good R&B and the Renaissance album. Fun times and I can't wait to go back. read more

I have always wanted to experience a Chef Kwame restaurant, and his new Miami restaurant outperformed my expectations. This restaurant is one we needed in this city--the flavors are a blend of Caribbean meets everything chef loves about Miami, and you can feel it from the moment you walk in. The decor, still feels so authentically Miami while transporting you to a cozy, intimate New York bars. The kind of moments that take you back to feeling at home even if it's your first time here. The service was friendly and lively, the rum cocktails were delicious but again, the food is what you want to come here for. Please don't skip out on the ceviche (not pictured) or the Rasta pasta.

Las' Lap was on my friends radar for a while and Since she had never experienced Jamaican food before I told her I would love to join her. The unique flavors and heat of the cuisine is really something everyone should try at least once (IMO). We ordered the beef carpaccio and crudo for apps. Both were so delicious and flavorful. For our mains, we had the oxtail and Rasta pasta. Neither one of us really cared for either of the dishes and the heat of the scotch bonnet really caught up to us after a while. The service was great, but the menu was a little lacking in options, but we did enjoy our experience overall. read more

Now the food... everything we tried was packed with flavor. For starters, we had the sticky wings delicious with just the right kick of spice. The oxtail cuban sandwich ended up being my favorite dish of the night. The grilled lamb was tender and cooked perfectly, and the wagyu griot was bursting with bold, and so much flavors.

I have been eyeballing Tatiana's in NY for over a year but I haven't had a chance to go up there yet so, when I saw that Chef Kwame had opened a restaurant in my backyard I knew I had to be there and I'm so happy he didn't disappoint. Not only were the hostess completely warming and welcoming but so was chef Kwame who was IN the building having conversations with the patrons. Now, the Ambiance is quite literally excellence. VERY beautiful space with a full bar and very "sultry" lighting. The patio is covered and decorated beautifully with lights and the playlist was that of someone with West Indian/Caribbean/African roots. I was literally dancing in my seat while stuffing my face! I ordered the sticky wings and the wagyu Tasso. The wings were smoky, sweet with a pinch of heat on the back end. I typically do not like sauced wings because it's usually sweet BBQ. These were not that and the cook time was perfect because they were still crispy. The wagyu Tasso.....perfection. There was a nice seasoned crust on the meat but when you cut into it there are juices galore. When you pair that with the crunch, tang, and spice from your pikliz you're in heaven. The rice and peas also cooked and flavored to perfection!! I cannot wait to return to try more items and maybe a cocktail. I also can't wait to visit NY as well. Thank you all for the wonderful food and hospitality. read more

Went back for a third time and it was an experience, but not as great as the first two times. The ambiance and music were still on point and great. The doubles, sticky wings and lamb riblets are a guaranteed amazing experience! The rasta pasta was lacking in al dente and clams. The dish didn't match the description or the reviews.. We also would've enjoyed it more if we weren't stuffed from the oxtail sandwich. There was no need to order both carb dishes but the server said it would be fine. We felt as though the servers objective was to sell us as many items for the tip. The dessert also was ok and the timing it took to get our bill was over 30 minutes and we weren't the only table that experienced this. Despite the third visit falling short, we would go again because the first two experiences were outstanding! The tamarind mocktail was great! Still worthy of a visit so enjoy! read more

I have to start with the staff. They make you feel like you're home. Very different from most high end restaurants in Miami, especially on the beach.

They are very small but a great combination of flavors, especially if you use the spicy sauces. Followed that up with the spicy wings which was also very good.

We thoroughly enjoyed our time here. The ambiance was trendy and true to Afro caribbean style incorporations. The menu was excellent and culturally inclusive of the most popular dishes across the Caribbean, the flavors were authentic, not watered down or Americanized, which was notable and important to us as Jamaican customers. But most importantly was the service, I rarely invest money and time eating out in Miami because the service industry is absolute trash in this city. But I must say, Las Lap excels in service, I commend them on their efforts to maintain excellent service and an A+ experience. Our waiter was Raymond who was incredible, the GM was also very kind and knowledgeable about the details of the restaurants/chefs origins. We will be back, and will def recommend. read more

The staff were kind and the service was great. The restaurant was too dark and too cold. The food was decent until the bucatini came out which was like warm, overcooked to mush, and watered down with no flavor. If you still want to try out this place, I recommend the oxtail sandwich and wings. read more

The food and service was amazing however, do not sit on the high top chairs on the side of the bar. These are extremely uncomfortable and caused back and neck pain despite the fact that I am only 41. We cannot reach the foot rail, and I am not short. I also saw several other customers trying to keep their feet/legs up on the seat because of the terrible angle these seats cause you to sit. They definitely need some other place to put your feet to help the angle between your hips and knees. This would be a 5 star review if not for the significantly uncomfortable seat. I honestly could not wait to get out of there even though the food was amazing. This should be fixed. read more
